For this project, I learned the fundamentals of layer masking, copying, and blending through a hands-on Photoshop tutorial. Much of the process involved trial and error, especially when refining the layer masks. Small adjustments made a big difference, and I had to work carefully to avoid unwanted edges or artifacts. Blending the layered elements required the most patience, since subtle transitions and fine details took time to get right. In the end, the project taught me how much precision and experimentation go into creating seamless composites, and it helped me build a stronger foundation in Photoshop’s core tools.
